The role of men in nursing is not always evident. Men have been care takers in early societies, military health care, and the religious sector. The perception of men in nursing, however, took a shift from one of honor to one of deviance and failure from medical school. As the contributions of historical men in nursing, such as Walt Whitman, are brought to light, so are the contributions of select men within the Gerontological Advanced Practice Nurses Association (GAPNA). Dr. George Peraza-Smith provides an exclusive interview, shares his dedication and contributions to the care of the aging adult, and provides words of wisdom to those wanting to impact the care of geriatric nursing.
男性在护理中的角色并不总是显而易见的。男性在早期社会、军队医疗保健和宗教领域一直是照顾者。然而，人们对护理专业中男性的看法已经从荣誉转变为偏差和失败，这种看法源于医学院。随着 Walt Whitman 等护理历史上的男性的贡献被揭示出来，老年护理高级实践护士协会 (GAPNA) 中的一些男性的贡献也被揭示出来。乔治·佩雷萨-史密斯博士进行了独家采访，分享了他对照顾老年人的奉献和贡献，并向那些希望影响老年护理的人提供了智慧之语。
